You make 4chan sounds like a utopia. Clearly you've never seen the revenge porn, gore, doxxing, etc that happens (or at least used to happen, havent been there in years) on b/.

why the hell would anyone go on /b/? Same reason no one goes to reddit/r/nsfl

And honestly, 4chan really is a utopia compared to orange reddit. Removing identities makes conversations less about how the individual appears and more about the substance of the topic.

So you agree that unmoderated communities result in cesspools? We took the scenic route, but I'm glad we arrived at my point eventually.
This thread is talking about an example of doxxing on a much larger scale than anything that has ever happened on 4chan. What's your point?
My point is what my original comment says.
